Sometimes the Best Things are the Hardest

As is probably very evident from my posts, I am a Christian. I believe that there is a God who created everything and He sent His Son to die for me and save me from my sins. But sometimes, it can be easy to doubt these things. It can be easy to wonder if there is a God and if I am just tricking myself into trusting in something that doesn't exist. It is times like this that I lament the fact that God does not show Himself. I call out that it would be easier to trust if I could just see Him or hear Him. 

But then I remember that sometimes it is the hardest things that are the best for us.If a marathon were easy, it wouldn't be worth running. If  Mt Everest were easy to climb, there would be no triumph in concurring it. If it were easy to qualify in debate (yes, everything in my life eventually goes back to that) I wouldn't be worth putting a lot of effort in, I wouldn't learn and grow as much, and the thrill of breaking would not be nearly as sweet. 

So, even though it is really hard sometimes, and sometimes the chatter of the world places doubt in my mind, I  think I am going to stick it out. I'll just hold on to trust, and pray for Him to help me through this, because I know at the end, it will  be totally worth it. 

Until next time, au revoir.
